Term Needs Definition
The administration should officially define the term “so¬
cial function," While being specific as to the restrictions plac¬
ed upon social functions, the STUDENT HANDBOOK, which of¬
ficially states the rules by which students must govern their
deportment, falls to define this term.
ALTHOUGH the suspended students did not use this point In
their defense, the chance exists that a student could violate one
or more of the restrictions without knowllngly sponsoring a so¬
cial function. Under the present unwritten Interpretation, a
gathering of four or more students Is subject to the restrictions
placed on social functions. But, a gathering of four or more people
Is not necessarily called a social function unless the situation
causes a disturbance. In that case, the administration will legally
take disciplinary action against the group.
However, this Is not to say that an unscheduled, unchaperon¬
ed party or dance which does not create a disturbance is not a
social function, but that It Is less likely to come to the attention
of the administration.
Each campus organization Is limited to two social functions
per quarter. These are usually planned by a committee. Does
this mean that a gathering must be planned by two or more In
order to be considered a social function ? Obviously, a gathering
of four or more would necessitate some planning.
HOWEVER, this interpretation defines the term only as to
the number Involved. The definition should include the purpose
of social functions so as not to impose undue limit upon the day
to day life of the student.
Since the above stated limited Interpretation forms the basis
for the administration’s decisions on this matter, it should be
officially stated In the STUDENT HANDBOOK as it now stands.
However, the administration should further define the ab¬
stract term "social function" in a more concrete and inclusive
statement.
Student Wives Meet Tuesdays

ing response for their deeds:
Ladles,
We the officers and men of
Company A, 1st Battalion, 26th
Infantry would like to thank you
for your generous package.
To men who are living un¬
der the difficult conditions we do
In Vietnam, any comfort is
greatly appreciated. Your gifts
were all needed and none of them
will go to waste.
It Is comforting to know that
In spite of all the protests and
such that go on at home the ma¬
jority of the American people
are behind us. Rest assured
that we know you are behind us
100 % and the package and let¬
ter you sent only serve to
strengthen our faith in the
American people’s support of
our actions.
I wish that we could write
to each of you Individually but
time does not permit, so please
accept this letter as all of our
thanks, to all of you.
Enclosed is a "BlueSpad¬
ers" patch, the 26th Infan¬
try’s unit patch. We would
like for you to have one and to be
as proud of It as we are. To

Parade Oj Opinion
Dear Editors:
Alpha Omlcron Pi Sorority
has felt for a long time that
something should be done on
this campus to promote schol¬
arship and Improve the stu¬
dent Image on campus. Stu¬
dents are on campus to learn
and It was time to allow them
to use the knowledge they have
acquired, not just their
"brawn.”
The group worked all last
spring and this fall to promote
the Rose Bowl, which Is pat¬
terned after the College Bowl
of television. This was Included
In our sorority article that was
published by the "Volette.”
Thereafter, In the last two Is¬
sues, you have written the ADP1
Rose Bowl.
We have always been proud
of the paper and the work It has
done on this campus. However,
we feel credit should be given
where It Is due ...
Sincerely,
The sisters of
Thu Omlcron Chapter of
Alpha Omlcron PI
AN OPEN LETTER TO
THE STUDENT BODY:
October 19, 1967
I have become concerned
with the apparent apathy which
exists on our campus. The
students In general do not seem
concerned with campus events
or activities.
WE HAVE a winning foot¬
ball team and relatively good
attendance at the games, but
spirit and support seems to be
lacking. Even the cheerleaders
seem too interested in personal
conversation to lead the fans.
The student newspaper lacks the
"guts” to have an editorial po¬
licy and would rather rely on
filler for editorials. The stu¬
dent government Is doing all
It can to bring outside attrac¬
tions to our campus; but with
one exception (the Four Sea¬
sons’ concert), attendance Is
poor.
WE HAVE an extremely pro¬
gressive administration, and 1
am sure they would appreciate
hearing from the student body
regarding Improvements to the
student life program In all Its
aspects.
I AM NOT writing this as a
criticism but hopefully as a
challenge. College life Is what
you make It. Don’t throw away
an opportunity.
Yours for a better U.T.M.,
G. Robert Brengle
Assistant Professor
Dear Prof. Brengle; .
This newspaper has been—
and is- concerned over the
apathy on campus and off. Edi¬
torial readership on any news¬
paper Is relatively low. Less
than half the public reads edi¬
torial columns. However, you
evidently missed the
VOLETTE’S editorials -
"Apathy Is the Enemy” and
"Apathy: Pain of Plenty”-
on February 9 and February
16 this year, respectively.
AS FOR an editorial policy,
this paper— like many, both
commercial and campus-
does not have a written one.
It has used what you label
"filler” editorials on occasion.
It Is not so narrow-minded to
believe Its staff conceives the
only worthwhile editorial opin¬
ion in the country. Guest or
syndicated or "canned” editor¬
ials are common. Some are
bad, some good. The quality of
the American press Is not of
current concern In this In¬
stance. The Nashville TENNES¬
SEAN has used them. The
Memphis COMMERCIAL-
APPEAL uses them often, as¬
suming you read one of the
two major dallies serving this
area.
The VOLETTE’S "guts” can
be as visceral as a torn in¬
testine If it feels an event Is
worthy of such graphic evalua¬
tion. It takes a stand when It
feels one Is necessary. Other¬
wise, It assumes that the pub¬
lic — campus — to a degree has
enough sense to reach a deci¬
sion on an issue after an objec¬
tive Interpretation of It.
AS FOR the student body,
this newspaper Is for it. It IS
the student body’s logical, ob¬
jective voice. It welcomes cri¬
ticism, Including yours.
The Editors
Dear Editors:
Nineteen to eighteen was
the final score. Any reason
Martin should have won? The
football team romps over four
opponents. The entire student
body says "we” are ranked
eighth in the nation. Apprecia¬
tion for the minor role the
football team played In se¬
curing that eighth position
was shown Thursday night.
We went to the pep rally.
We listened to the cheerlead¬
ers cheer and tell us how much
we appreciated the team. We
looked with Indifference at the
groups of football players,
standing by themselves. Fin¬
ally, the rally was over.
Now, 1 am just an Ohio
Yankee. But, for some strange
reason I take pride In the
school I attend. I think much
more of our football team
than Knoxville’s or Geneva
High’s. Just once In the five
years I have been here I would
like to see us act a little ma¬
ture. Let’s do something for
ourselves; we will continue to
be here. . . It’s homecoming
week. Why not act like It?
Pat the football players on
the back. Would we object to
someone telling us our new
Cadillac Is nice? Let’s cheer
WITH the cheerleaders at the
rally and at the game. Let’s
give the players a reason to win.
Perhaps, this Friday we could
stage a protest march on the
football dorm. .. against Mid¬
dle Tennessee! We stand to
accomplish a great deal more
than the last one.

BIDS were opened on the
campus October 5 by John L.
Neely, director of physical
plant of the University of Ten¬

completed by the opening of
fall quarter 1968 subject to
penalty for failure to meet the
deadline.
Since the low bid of $1,425,-
250 exceeded the funds allocated
for the project, the University
will make some adjustment to'
bring the cost of the facility
within the money available, ac¬
cording to Dr. Archie R. Dykes.
THE residence hall will con¬
tain approximately 80,000
square feet. Weight-bearing
walls constructed around a
courtyard will be features of
the three-story, air conditioned

BRUXELLES-By the end o i this week over 1,250 students
will land In New York after spending a summer working In
Europe.
The working students were _
selected as participants In Jobs Next year, ISIS expects t

the International Student Infor- able to applicants whoqua'l^
matlon Service OSIS)a non-pro- and are accepted by the Job
fit organization based In Brus- Abroad Cultural Board,
sels, Belgium. The return of this year*
The Idea behind Jobs corps and 1,250 worm
Abroad, as expressed by Mr,
Francis X. Gordon, Executive
Director, Is "to provide stu¬
dents and teachers an oppor¬
tunity to Increase their under¬
standing of a foreign culture
by experiencing Its traditional
way of life."
Through Jobs Abroad, a
member can work in the lan¬
guage speaking area of his
choice and may select work
from nine job categories.
Since most participants have
little or no work experience, the
job categories available to
them consist mostly of jobs In
non-skilled work. The cate¬
gories are: Farm Work, Con¬
struction, Work Camps, Camp
Counselling, Child Care, Hotel-
Restaurant - Resort, Factory,
Hospital and Special. Hie last
two generally call for previous
experience and better-than-
average language fluency.
Participation In the Jobs
Abroad program has given
many a student and teacher a
practical solution to coming
abroad. Working at a paying job
diminishes the costs of the
vast educational experiences
of a summer abroad.

Modern Dance Conveys
Messages Through Movement
By Sherry Hilton?
The art of Modern Dance Is simply being able to express
emotion, moods, or Ideas through movement.
Dancing Is a way of moving the body, the Instrument of
dance. In rhythm to keep time
to music or to a beating drum.
Today dancing Is for fun or to
entertain spectators, but danc¬
ing among primitive peoples
was very serious for It was
part of their religion and magic.
They had dances that were for
rain, fair weather, victory In
battle and fertility. They danced
In celebration erf a wedding or
In mourning for a fellow tribes¬
man.
Tribal dances were sym¬
bolical dances, In which move¬
ments and gestures were used
to represent real thoughts. As
time passed, the gestures and
movements became more com¬
plicated. Various peoples de¬
veloped different styles of
dancing.

a scion of the cult dance and
In a few centuries, It was
characterised by forms, rules,
fixed vocabulary, and artificial
formulas. However, such danc¬
ers as Isadora Duncan, Ruth St.
Denis, Ted Shawn, and Mary
Wlgtnan rebeled from these tra¬
ditional concepts and per¬
formed from their Inter-being.
Isadora Duncan, probably
the highest figure In the world
of modem dance, performed
from personal expression.
Ruth St. Denis devoted her¬
self to religious dance. She
relied on the beauty of move¬
ment and she had a faculty for
improvisation.
Her husband, Ted Shawn,
battled for the cause of men in
dance. Mary Wigman widened
the range of dance and worked
on the advancement of the
underlying theory of Modem
Dance. She was Inherently
dramatic because of her con¬
stant awareness of space.
Inspired by music by such
artists as Chopin and Tchai¬
kovsky, she tried to interpret
the music. She was inspired
by Ancient Greece and to the
horror of the world, she Ignored
the mode of dress and went
barelegged and barefooted. In
the simplest of Greek tunics
her body was free to move,
and to reveal the beauty of dance
without pretense or convention.
MODERN Dance is explain¬
ed by John Martin as “a new
point of view rather than a cult
or system.” It is based on the
theory that dance as an art is
self-sufficient with costume,
music, and props as accessory
elements which serve to en¬
hance the performance.
Beginning, intermediate,
and advanced classes are of¬
fered. Mrs. Gladys Keeton,
the instructor of Modem Dance,
hopes to have a Modern Dance
group next quarter which will
meet at night once a week. She
plans for the group to dwell on
techniques and composition.
What would you do if you
were an egg in a frying pan,
a drop of water or a tree in
the spring or fall?

Vols Fall To Delta
In Gridiron Strum
you’re “in” fashion
with these exciting
The Volunteers lost a squeaker Saturday when they were up¬
set by the Statesmen of Delta State 19 to 18.
THE VOLS took the opening kickoff to start the game but
quickly ran up against stiff opposition and were forced to punt.
The Statesmen took over
and rolled for two consecu¬
tive first downs but were
stopped there as Vol line¬
backer Terry Butcher fell on a
Delta fumble.
The Vols, unable to put to¬
gether a scoring drive, were
forced to punt four plays later.
THE DEFENSIVE unit was
ready for action as linebacker
Terry Butcher and defensive
end Gordon Lambert teamed
up to set the Statesmen back
12 yards in two plays and for¬
ced them to punt.
Vol quarterback Allan Cox
passed to Richard Whitfield for
14 yards to set up the score
which came two plays later as
tailback Larry Shanks knifed In
for the TD from the three-
yard line. The Vols decided
to try the two-point conver¬
sion and it was good as Shanks
again carried it over for the
two points to make it 8 to 0
with 7:11 left in the first quar¬
ter.
DELTA took the Vol kick¬
off but was stopped five plays
later as defensive end Gordon
Lambert over-ran the Delta
quarterback and scooped up
the ball for the Volunteers.
After rolling for two
straight first downs the Vols
were halted by another Delta
interception on Delta’s 39yard
line. Headed by an effective
passing attack, the Statesmen
began grinding out yardage to¬
ward paydirt. But defensive
tackle Don Defino had other
plans as he crashed through
the Delta State line and slam¬
med Delta for a six-yard loss.
On fourth down Delta kicking
specialist Wells, booted a 37
yard field goal for the States¬
men making the score 8 to 3
in favor of UTM as the half
ended.
Delta took Vol kicking
specialist Lee Mayo’s boot
in the end zone to open the sec¬
ond half.
LED BY Delta field general
James Hobson, the Statesmen
marched down the gridiron into
Vol territory and were in for
the score as Hobson hit Delta’s
James Verson in the end zone
for the score. Hobson threw to
Coney for the two point conver¬
sion to tie the score at U-all.
TTie Vols began picking up
momentum and rolled to four
straight first downs to the Delta
13-yard line but were plagued
by another interception as Delta
took over.
DELTA moved within field
goal range and attempted a
three-pointer. But the formid¬
able wall of the Vols broke
through and blocked the kick.
The Vols offensive unit took
over and led by Bobby Hayes
pounded out the yardage down
to the 10-yard line where Vol
quarterback Allan Cox ran it in
for the score. Mayo kicked the
extra point and the score was
18 to 11 with 7:37 left in the
game.
THE STATESMEN were
held fast by the Vol defense
after losing the Vol kickoff
and were forced to punt. The
Vols were unable to generate
a scoring drive also and were
forced to make what proved to
be the fatal play of the evening.
Gene Sides of the Volunteers
punted on fourth down from his
45-yard line. TTie ball was
taken by halfback Dendy of the
Statesmen who returned the punt
85 yards for the score. Delta’s
quarterback James Hobson then
passed to Doney for the two-
point conversion, putting Delta
in the win column 19 to 18 as
the game ended.
